My purpose in writing The Complete Idiot's Guide to Parliamentary Procedure FastTrack was to provide an easy, accessible, tothepoint resource for conducting shorter, fairer, more orderly meetings.
Unlike some larger books on

procedure, this FastTrack guide has a special focus on smaller meetings, such as governmental bodies and the boards and committees of nonprofits, condo and homeowner associations.
The book provides details on the most used motions, appropriate informal procedures for smaller boards, preparing proper agendas, writing effective minutes, and general advice for shortening meetings.
